LATER pIsPATcH.
San FRANCISCO, August 1.-THE
west-bound passenger express train on
the Southern Pacific was run of the
switch near Papago, about fifteen miles
east Of Tucson, Ariz., last night, by
four masked men. The engine was
ditched, and the express car robbed of
about $500. The robbery occurred at
the same point where the West-bound
express was robbed in April last. On
the track beyond where the train was
brought to q standstill, the robbers had
fastened three torpedoes, to warn the
engineer and compel him to stop his
train. The plan to turn the switch and
ditch the engine was evidently thought
OF later. AS soon as the train went
into the ditch, one of the robbers,
who was upon the bank, commenced
firing q Winchester rife. He shot
twice into the sleeper and twice through
the express car. They then went to
the mail car and made the agent come
out and 60 to the express.
They ordered the messenger to come
out, but he would not open the door.
They then blew the door open with a
Giant cartridge, and forced the mail
agent to 60 into the car ahead.
Two of the robbers then went in, and
one of them held the route agent,
Gault, and the mail agent in one end of
the car, while the other covered Smith,
the messenger, with revolvers, and
made him open the safe and put the
money in a sack. They struck him
over the head with revol-
yer once, but did not iniure
him much. There were four men in
the gang. One was on the bank, one on
the opposite side of the train, and two
went IN the express car. They did not
allow anyone to come out of the coaches,
A complete description of the robbers
has been obtained, and they are be-
ieved to be the same who robbed the
train in April. The railway company
and express company have each Offered
81 600 for the arrest of the robbers. Tn,
train was not making full speed, ant
the ditching OF the engine and follow
ing car kept the force of the shock from
the passenger coaches. Another engin
was sent out from Tucson Immediately
and the train was hauled into tina
place.

THE LESSON OF THE ELM.

An ancient elm outside my cottnge gate
Spread wide its giant branches, gaunt and
bare
It's withered leaves SO lately green aud taiY
Lay heaped. aud cvssses Sac turf with fairy
weight;
While as the winds sighed through the leafless
This sad plant to my listening ear was borne:
All moi The bleak and winter days have come,
And useless, must stand, and idly wait;
MY creaking limbs bemoan their hapless state;
OF needful help or pity there is none.
Bereft OF beauty no longer stand
Inviting to my shade with beckoning hand.
No children play around me as Of yore,
Nor robins build in me their swinging nest;
The patient herd no longer here seeks rest
Returning homewark, as so oft before;
Forgot, neglected, none to pity me.
VOr mantle throw DER my deformity.
That night q gentle storm of snow was seen
Soft falling through the midnight air,
And morn disclosed scene OF beauty rare;
The hill snow-robed and wales stretched white
between,
While like q temple grand, the old tree stood
Inviting men to purity, and God.
A lesson from the elm my dull heart learned;
We can not tell, we may not always know,
Why things unsought by US are ordered so,
And that withheld for which our souls have
yearned;
But We can safely trust, and dry our tears
The future shall be better than our fears.
And SO know why days of weakness come
When cares and duties must be laid aside;
These are Gods plans. II we His time abide
To work, to rest, or early to go home,
We may in sweet contentment meet each fate,
For "they, too serve, who only stand and wait. "

DESPAIRlNG TOM.
story of Faithful Cat That Died of q
Broken Heart.

story of Faithful Cat That Died of
Broken Heart.
A lady visiting bird-fancier's shop
was struck by the beauty and size of an
Angora cat exhibited for sale, impris-
oned in large parrots cage. The
captive effectually pleading for pity by
licking her hand, was purchased and
taken home. After some years, the cat
was removed with his mistress to
Brighton, though under protest as to
future reformation. Tom was then
probably one of the largest of
his species, and universally adj
mired. He had adopted an apparently
incurable habit of sharpening his
claws on a highly polished dining-room
table; and also committed sad havoc
amongst the flowers in the garden of
his new abode, spending great por-
ton of leisure time luxuriously lying in
the sunshine, amidst mignonctte, etc. A
decree of Punishment was at length un-
willingly issued, and poor innocently
erring Tom forthwith departed to a
country rectory, where he was much
valued. Every kindness that could con-
duce to his comfort was shown, all his
special tastes as to diet consulted; but
The exile remained inconsolable. He
never attempted to return, not seeming
to have sufficient energy left to attempt
aught in self-defense; he simply gave
himself up to despair. 1t was vainly
hoped that time would reconcile the
mourner to his changed lot, but matters
only grew worse, the cat pining and
fretting till he became the shadow of
his former self. He could not twine
'fantastick garlands," or utter an alto
gether "mclodious lay" like ''the fair
Ophelia, but wandered aimlessly about
the garden, eating little except green
fruit and such strange fare; dying, after
u brief period, literally of u broken
heart. The chief object of this devoted
love was the cook he had left behind
him. The attachment, unlike that of
Shakespeare's ill-starred heroine, may
not have been romantic one; still, it
was purely disinterested, unwavering
amidst all mere worldly temptations.
Nature is fine in love; and where tits fine.
1t sends some precious incense OF itself
After the thing it loves.
Poor faithful Tom gave the sole offeY-
ing he had to give-his life. If it be
true that "Mans love is of mans life
thing apart" it was in the above case
proved to be cats 'whole existence"
